  • 1 red onion, cut into wedges
  • 2 tsp finely grated ginger
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1 long green chilli, seeded, finely chopped (optional)
  • 1 tsp garam masala
  • 1 tsp ground turmeric
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp ground coriander
  • 1/2 tsp ground cardamom
  • 2 sprigs curry leaves
  • 2 tbs olive oil
  • 1 cup (120g) frozen peas
  • 120g Perino tomatoes, finely chopped

Raita

  • 1 Lebanese cucumber, coarsely grated
  • 1 cup (280g) Greek-style yoghurt
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped mint

Method

STEP 1

Preheat oven to 200°C. Line a baking tray with baking paper. Place the potato, onion, ginger, garlic, chilli, if using, garam masala, turmeric, cumin, coriander, cardamom, curry leaves and oil in a bowl. Season. Toss to combine. Arrange in a single layer on the lined tray. Roast, turning occasionally, for 35 mins or until the potato is golden brown and tender. Sprinkle with peas. Roast for 2 mins or until the peas are heated through.

STEP 2

Meanwhile, to make the raita, use your hands to squeeze as much liquid from the cucumber as possible. Combine the cucumber in a bowl with yoghurt and mint. Season.

STEP 3

Top the potato mixture with half the raita. Sprinkle with the tomato. Serve immediately with the remaining raita.
